Abstract

For the arrangement of a tachograph (2) with a shallow, rectangular-shaped insertion housing and a drawer (19) serving to accommodate the tachograph disc a carrier (8), capable of swivelling about an axis, is proposed, which is preferably incorporated in the roof structure of the driver's cab of the motor vehicle. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Kraftfahrzeug mit einem Fahrtschreiber, in welchem zur sichtbaren Darstellung von Fahrt- und Arbeitszeitdaten Diagrammscheiben Anwendung finden, für deren Halterung und uhrzeitrichtigen Transport eine mit Zentrier- und Mitnahmemitteln versehene und von einem Laufwerk angetriebene Diagrammscheibenaufnahme vorgesehen und derart angeordnet ist, daß sie zwischen einer Registrierposition innerhalb des Fahrtschreibers und einer Einlege- bzw. Entnahmeposition außerhalb des Fahrtschreibers bewegbar ist.The invention relates to a motor vehicle with a tachograph, in which chart disks are used for the visible display of travel and working time data, for the mounting and timely transportation of which a chart disk holder provided with centering and driving means and driven by a drive is provided and arranged such that it is movable between a registration position within the tachograph and an insertion or removal position outside the tachograph.

Die derzeit üblichen Fahrtschreiber, in denen als Aufzeichnungsträger Diagrammscheiben verwendet werden, sind mit einer Tachometerfunktion gekoppelt, die es erforderlich macht, daß diese Fahrtschreiber im Armaturenbrett eines Fahrzeuges derart angeordnet sein müssen, daß sie sich während des Fahrens im engeren Sichtfeld des Fahrers befinden. Diese Einbausituation bedeutet jedoch, daß sich zwischen dem Fahrtschreiber und dem Fahrer die Lenksäule und das Lenkrad befinden und somit die Zugänglichkeit beim Eingeben bzw. Entnehmen der Diagrammscheiben, gleichgültig, ob es sich bei dem eingesetzten Fahrtschreiber um einen solchen mit einem aufklappbaren oder herausziehbaren Diagrammscheibenträger oder um einen solchen mit selbsttätigem Diagrammscheibeneinzug handelt, behindert ist.The current tachographs, in which chart disks are used as recording media, are coupled to a tachometer function, which makes it necessary for these tachographs to be arranged in the dashboard of a vehicle in such a way that they are within the driver's narrow field of vision while driving. However, this installation situation means that the steering column and the steering wheel are located between the tachograph and the driver and thus the accessibility when entering or removing the chart disks, regardless of whether the tachograph used is one with a hinged or pull-out chart disk holder or is one with automatic chart indentation, is disabled.

Es ist daher naheliegend, den Fahrtschreiber ohne eine Tachometerfunktion einzusetzen, d.h. den eigentlichen Fahrtschreiber räumlich von einem für die Anzeige der Geschwindigkeit und des zurückgelegten Weges erforderlichen Anzeigeinstrument zu trennen, wobei zweckmäßigerweise beide Geräte über eine geeignete Datenkopplung in Verbindung bleiben sollten.It is therefore obvious to use the tachograph without a tachometer function, ie to physically separate the actual tachograph from a display instrument required for displaying the speed and the distance traveled, both devices should expediently remain connected via a suitable data coupling.

Die Verwendung von Diagrammscheiben, die den Vorzug haben, einen relativ leicht handhabbaren dezentralen Datenspeicher darzustellen, dessen Inhalt sowohl als Sofortinformation unmittelbar, d.h. ohne technische Hilfsmittel verwenden zu müssen, lesbar ist und somit bei stichprobenweisen Kontrollen die Fahrtdaten eines Transportauftrages, einer Schicht oder eines Arbeitstages sowie das Einhalten der Arbeitszeitrichtlinien der sog. Sozialvorschriften sozusagen auf einen Blick überschaubar machen, erfordert nach wie vor eine für den Fahrer ergonomisch günstige Anordnung des Fahrtschreibers. Das heißt, der Fahrtschreiber muß wenigstens in einem für den Fahrer bequem zugänglichen Handhabungsbereich angeordnet werden. Die Trennung von Anzeige und Registrierung verursacht somit einen zusätzlichen Raumbedarf in einem Bereich, in welchem ohnehin eine hohe Instrumentendichte gegeben ist.The use of diagram slices, which have the advantage of representing a relatively easy-to-use decentralized data storage device, the content of which, as immediate information, is immediate, i.e. Without having to use technical aids, it is legible and, in the case of random checks, it makes the journey data of a transport order, a shift or a working day, as well as compliance with the working time guidelines of the so-called social regulations, so to speak, at a glance, still requires ergonomically favorable ones for the driver Arrangement of the tachograph. This means that the tachograph must be arranged at least in a handling area which is easily accessible for the driver. The separation of display and registration thus requires additional space in an area in which there is already a high density of instruments.

Wird in dieser Situation ein Fahrtschreiberkonzept vorgesehen, bei dem die Diagrammscheiben selbsttätig eingezogen und ausgegeben werden können, ist der mögliche Anordnungsradius des Fahrtschreibers größer als bei einem Fahrtschreiberkonzept, bei dem die Diagrammscheiben von Hand auf die mit einem Zentrier- und Mitnahmedorn versehene Diagrammscheibenaufnahme aufgelegt werden müssen und zwar deshalb, weil der automatische Transport und die ebenfalls automatisch erfolgende Zentrierung der Diagrammscheiben das Einlegen einer Diagrammscheibe von der subjektiven Sorgfalt des Bedienenden unabhängig machen. Der technische Aufwand, mit dem dieser Effekt erzielt wird, ist jedoch sehr hoch, zumal verschiedene Funktionskontrollmittel vorgesehen werden müssen, um bei einem Verkanten und Hängenbleiben einer Diagrammscheibe einen Totalausfall des Fahrtschreibers zu vermeiden. Hinzu kommt, daß ein, was wünschenswert wäre, wahlweises Verwenden von Einzel- und Bündeldiagrammscheiben einen erheblichen zusätzlichen technischen Aufwand erfordern würde und die erzielbare Mindestbauhöhe eines derartigen Fahrtschreibers im wesentlichen durch den für die Aufnahme einer durch den Schlitz eingegebenen Diagrammscheibe heb- und senkbaren Zentrier- und Mitnahmedorn bestimmt ist.If, in this situation, a tachograph concept is provided in which the chart disks can be drawn in and output automatically, the possible arrangement radius of the tachograph is larger than in a tachograph concept in which the chart disks must be placed by hand on the chart disk holder provided with a centering and driving mandrel This is because the automatic transport and the automatic centering of the diagram discs make inserting a diagram disc independent of the subjective care of the operator. However, the technical effort with which this effect is achieved is very high, especially since various function control means have to be provided in order to avoid a total failure of the tachograph when a chart is tilted and caught. In addition, what would be desirable, the optional use of single and bundle chart disks would require considerable additional technical effort and the achievable minimum height of such a tachograph essentially is determined by the centering and driving mandrel that can be raised and lowered through the slot for the insertion of a diagram disc.

Ausgehend von dem unter diesen Umständen zu bevorzugenden Konzept mit einer relativ zum Gehäuse des Fahrtschreibers bewegbaren Diagrammscheibenaufnahme bestand die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung demzufolge darin, die Handhabung von Diagrammscheiben beim Einlegen in und Entnehmen aus einem Fahrtschreiber ohne wesentlichen zusätzlichen Aufwand und ohne wesentliche Beeinträchtigung der Instrumentierung des Fahrzeuges zu verbessern.Based on the concept to be preferred under these circumstances with a chart disc holder that can be moved relative to the housing of the tachograph, the object of the present invention was therefore to handle chart disks when inserting and removing them from a tachograph without significant additional effort and without significantly impairing the instrumentation of the tachograph To improve the vehicle.

Die Lösung der Aufgabe beschreibt der Anspruch 1. Die in den Unteransprüchen dargestellten Lösungsmerkmale sind vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der gefundenen Erfindung.The solution to the problem is described in claim 1. The solution features presented in the subclaims are advantageous developments of the invention found.

Der besondere Nutzen, den die Erfindung bietet, resultiert aus der Verwendung eines Fahrtschreibertyps flacher Bauform mit herkömmlicher Handhabung beim Einlegen und Entnehmen der Diagrammscheiben sowie der Anordnung dieses Fahrtschreibers im "Über-Kopf-Bereich" des Fahrers. Bei einer derartigen Anordnung eines Fahrtschreibers darf der Fahrtschreiber gegenüber Geräten, die ebenfalls in diesem Bereich angeordnet werden könnten bzw. dem an sich vorgesehenen Stauraum absolute Anordnungspriorität für sich in Anspruch nehmen. Mit anderen Worten, eine für die Handhabung der Diagrammscheiben, die Betätigung beispielsweise von Funktionstasten und das Lesen angezeigter Werte ergonomisch richtige Lage des Fahrtschreibers kann im Gegensatz zum Armaturenbretteinbau weitgehend frei optimiert werden.The particular benefit that the invention offers results from the use of a tachograph type of flat design with conventional handling when inserting and removing the chart disks, and the arrangement of this tachograph in the "overhead area" of the driver. With such an arrangement of a tachograph, the tachograph may claim absolute arrangement priority over devices that could also be arranged in this area or the storage space provided per se. In other words, a position of the tachograph that is ergonomically correct for the handling of the diagram disks, the actuation of function keys, for example, and the reading of displayed values, can be largely freely optimized in contrast to the dashboard installation.

Von Vorteil ist ferner, daß bei der vorgesehenen Anordnung der Fahrtschreiber völlig unbehindert zugänglich ist und nach dem Verschwenken und dem Herausziehen der Schublade sich die Diagrammscheibenaufnahme in der normalen Sitzposition des Fahrers in dessen Sehfeld befindet. Dabei ist die optimale Stellung der Diagrammscheibenaufnahme bei herausgezogener Schublade durch geeignete Anschläge fixiert. Das Verschwenken des Trägers wird zweckmäßigerweise durch eine Bremse gedämpft.It is also advantageous that, in the arrangement provided, the tachograph is completely unobstructed, and after pivoting and pulling out the drawer, the diagram disk holder is in the driver's normal field of view in the driver's field of vision. The optimal position of the chart holder with the drawer pulled out is fixed by suitable stops. The pivoting of the carrier is expediently dampened by a brake.

Erwähnenswert ist außerdem, daß durch die gefundene Lösung die im Armaturenbrett üblicherweise herrschende Instrumentendichte zumindest nicht weiter gesteigert wird. Die gute Zugänglichkeit ist außerdem Voraussetzung für ein sowohl müheloses als auch ordnungsgemäßes Wechseln der Diagrammscheiben.It is also worth mentioning that the solution found does not at least further increase the density of instruments usually found in the dashboard. Good accessibility is also a prerequisite for changing the chart disks both effortlessly and properly.

Im folgenden sei die Erfindung anhand der Zeichnungen erläutert:

  • Es zeigen Fig. 1 eine Teilansicht des Dachunterbaus eines Fahrzeuges mit einer Frontansicht eines in dem Dachunterbau angeordneten Fahrtschreibers,
  • Fig. 2 eine Perspektivdarstellung des in Einlegeposition befindlichen geöffneten Fahrtschreibers,
  • Fig. 3 eine Studie der Grenzstellungen eines im Dachunterbau eines Fahrzeuges angeordneten Fahrtschreibers.
The invention is explained below with reference to the drawings:
  • 1 shows a partial view of the roof structure of a vehicle with a front view of a tachograph arranged in the roof structure,
  • 2 is a perspective view of the opened tachograph in the inserted position,
  • 3 shows a study of the limit positions of a tachograph arranged in the roof structure of a vehicle.

Wie aus der Fig. 1 hervorgeht, weist der in einem Dachunterbau 1 eines Kraftfahrzeuges im wesentlichen eines Buses oder Lastkraftwagens angeordnete Fahrtschreiber 2 ein flaches Gehäuse auf, dessen Abmessungen vorzugsweise derart gewählt sind, daß der Fahrtschreiber 2 wahlweise auch in ein für ein Autoradio vorgesehenes oder parallel zu diesem ausgebildetes Fach einbaubar ist. Mit 3 ist das Dach des Kraftfahrzeuges, in dem der Fahrtschreiber 2 eingebaut ist, bezeichnet und mit 4 dessen Frontscheibe. Der Dachunterbau 1 besteht im wesentlichen aus einer mit 5 bezeichneten Frontwand und einem mit 6 bezeichneten Boden. Mit 7 ist ein ggf. in den Raum vorspringend ausgebildetes Fach bezeichnet, das als Stauraum genutzt oder für die Unterbringung von Geräten, darunter beispielsweise auch eines Fahrtschreibers, vorgesehen werden kann. Wie ferner aus der Fig. 1 ersichtlich ist, bildet ein den Fahrtschreiber 2 halternder Träger 8 einen integralen Teil des Dachunterbaus 1. Der Träger 8 ist schwenkbar gelagert und wird mittels geeigneter beiderseits des Trägers 8 wirkender Verriegelungsmittel, von denen in Fig. 2 jeweils eine Öffnung 9 und ein Bolzen 10 sichtbar sind, in der in Fig. 1 gezeigten geschlossenen Stellung gehalten. Mittels einer gefedert gelagerten Griffzunge 11, die in eine Mulde an der Unterseite des Trägers 8 hineinragt, läßt sich der Träger 8 bequem entriegeln. Eine nicht dargestellte beispielsweise an der Seite des Trägers 8 angebrachte Bremsvorrichtung hat die Aufgabe, den Träger 8 nach dem Entriegeln weich gegen einen oder mehrere gleichwirkender Anschläge zu führen, welche die geöffnete Stellung des Trägers 8 bestimmen. In Fig. 3 ist die Anschlagebene symbolisch dargestellt und mit 12 bezeichnet.As can be seen from FIG. 1, the tachograph 2 arranged in a roof substructure 1 of a motor vehicle, essentially a bus or truck, has a flat housing, the dimensions of which are preferably selected such that the tachograph 2 is optionally also provided in a car radio or for a car radio can be installed parallel to this trained compartment. With 3 the roof of the motor vehicle, in which the tachograph 2 is installed, is designated and with 4 the front window. The roof substructure 1 consists essentially of a front wall labeled 5 and a floor labeled 6. 7 designates a compartment which may be protruding into the room and which can be used as storage space or for accommodating devices, including, for example, a tachograph. As can also be seen from FIG. 1, a carrier 8 holding the tachograph 2 forms an integral part of the roof substructure 1. The carrier 8 is pivotably mounted and is secured by means of suitable locking means acting on both sides of the carrier 8, one of which is shown in FIG. 2 Opening 9 and a bolt 10 are visible, held in the closed position shown in FIG. 1. By means of a spring-mounted grip tongue 11, the protrudes into a trough on the underside of the carrier 8, the carrier 8 can be easily unlocked. A brake device, not shown, for example, attached to the side of the carrier 8 has the task of guiding the carrier 8 softly after unlocking against one or more stops having the same effect, which determine the open position of the carrier 8. In Fig. 3 the stop plane is shown symbolically and designated 12.

Ergänzend sei noch ausgeführt, daß an dem als Kunststoff-Spritzteil hergestellten Träger 8 ein durch geeignete seitlich vorgesehene Wangen 13, 14 versteifter und im wesentlichen rechtwinkelig zur Frontwand des Trägers 8 liegender Zwischenboden ausgebildet ist. Dieser dient dem aufzunehmenden Fahrtschreiber 2 und einem für die Befestigung des Fahrtschreibers 2 beispielsweise mittels Spreizfedern vorgesehenen Blechrahmen 15 als Auflage. Zweckmäßigerweise sind, was im einzelnen nicht dargestellt ist, an den Wangen 13 und 14 die Lagerungen des Trägers 8 angeformt, während diesen zugeordnete Achsstummel in Seitenwänden 16 des Dachunterbaus 1 angebracht sind.In addition, it should also be stated that an intermediate floor is formed on the carrier 8, which is produced as a plastic injection-molded part, by means of suitable cheeks 13, 14 provided laterally and essentially at right angles to the front wall of the carrier 8. This serves as support for the tachograph 2 to be accommodated and a sheet metal frame 15 provided for fastening the tachograph 2, for example by means of spreading springs. Appropriately, what is not shown in detail, the bearings of the carrier 8 are integrally formed on the cheeks 13 and 14, while associated stub axles are attached in side walls 16 of the roof substructure 1.

Bei dem dargestellten Fahrtschreiber 2, dessen quaderförmiges Gehäuse mit 17 bezeichnet ist, ist für das Wechseln der Diagrammscheiben 18 eine Schublade 19 vorgesehen, in welcher diverse Funktionsgruppen des Fahrtschreibers 2 angeordnet sind und welche der Halterung von Fahrer und Beifahrer zugeordneten Datenkarten 20 und 21 dient. Den Diagrammscheiben 18, von denen ebenfalls jeweils eine dem Fahrer und eine dem Beifahrer zugeordnet ist, sind in üblicher Weise geeignete Distanz- sowie Zentrier- und Mitnahmemittel zugeordnet, von denen in Fig. 2 lediglich der unrund ausgebildete Zentrierdorn 22 sichtbar ist. Mit diesem Konzept lassen sich mit dem Schließen und Verriegeln der Schublade 19 gleichzeitig die Diagrammscheiben 18 und die Datenkarten 20 und 21 unzugänglich verschließen. Zu diesem Zweck ist ein Schloß 23 vorgesehen, dessen in geeigneter Weise ausgebildeter Schlüssel 24 als Griff für die Betätigung der Schublade 19 dienen kann. An der Frontwand der Schublade 19 sind außer dem Schloß 23 eine mit dem in der Schublade 19 angeordneten Diagrammscheibenlaufwerk getrieblich in Verbindung stehende Uhr 25, ein Zeilendisplay 26 sowie Tasten 27, 28 und 29 angeordnet. Von letzteren dient beispielsweise die Taste 29 als Wähltaste, d.h. sie dient dem Fahrer dazu, Betriebszustände des Fahrzeuges sowie Arbeitszeitdaten zur Anzeige auf dem Zeilendisplay 26 anwählen zu können. Mit 30 ist ein feststehendes frontseitiges Wandteil des Gehäuses 17 bezeichnet, in dem Schiebeschalter 31 und 32 gelagert sind. Diese dienen der Fahrzeugbesatzung, ihre jeweilige Tätigkeit einzustellen, wobei durch eine Sperreinrichtung gewährleistet ist, daß jeweils nur ein Fahrer die Lenkstellung wählen kann.In the illustrated tachograph 2, the cuboid housing of which is designated 17, a drawer 19 is provided for changing the diagram disks 18, in which various functional groups of the tachograph 2 are arranged and which serves to hold the data cards 20 and 21 associated with the driver and front passenger. The diagram disks 18, of which one is also assigned to the driver and one to the front passenger, are assigned in the usual way suitable distance, centering and driving means, of which only the non-circular centering mandrel 22 is visible in FIG. 2. With this concept, when the drawer 19 is closed and locked, the diagram disks 18 and the data cards 20 and 21 can be closed inaccessibly at the same time. For this purpose, a lock 23 is provided, the key 24 of which is designed in a suitable manner can serve as a handle for actuating the drawer 19. At the In addition to the lock 23, the front wall of the drawer 19 has a clock 25, which is connected to the diagram disk drive arranged in the drawer 19, a line display 26 and keys 27, 28 and 29. Of the latter, for example, the key 29 serves as a selection key, ie it serves the driver to be able to select operating states of the vehicle and working time data for display on the line display 26. 30 with a fixed front wall part of the housing 17 is designated, in which slide switches 31 and 32 are mounted. These are used by the vehicle crew to stop their respective activities, with a locking device ensuring that only one driver can select the steering position at a time.

Der Vollständigkeit halber sei noch erwähnt, daß zwischen dem Verschwenken des Trägers 8 und dem Betätigen der Schublade 19 durch geeignete Sperrmittel eine Zwangsreihenfolge vorgesehen sein kann. Ebenso ist es denkbar, wenigstens die Schublade 19 des Fahrtschreibers 2 motorisch zu betätigen.For the sake of completeness, it should also be mentioned that between the pivoting of the carrier 8 and the actuation of the drawer 19, a forced sequence can be provided by suitable locking means. It is also conceivable to actuate at least the drawer 19 of the tachograph 2 by motor.
